Dear student,

With a 61% percentile in MHT CET 2025, getting into top colleges like COEP, VJTI, SPIT, or DJ Sanghvi is unlikely, as these usually require a percentile above 90. However, many mid-level private colleges are well within your reach, especially for branches like Data Science, AI, or IT, which have slightly lower cutoffs than core CSE.

You can consider colleges such as DY Patil (Akurdi, Ambi), Sinhgad Institute, JSPM, Zeal College, SIES Navi Mumbai, Sandip University, or SITCOE Yadrav. These colleges typically accept students with percentiles between 40 and 75, so your chances are decent.

During CAP counselling, fill as many choices as possible and keep your options open regarding branches. You may also check for vacancies in later rounds or institute-level admissions.

With 86% in MHT CET (PCM) and General category, you can target the following CS/IT colleges in Mumbai:

Top Options (Tough, but try in later rounds/spot round):

TSEC, Bandra

VESIT, Chembur

CRCE, Bandra

K. J. Somaiya, Vidyavihar

Better Chances in:

Shah & Anchor Kutchhi Engineering College

Atharva College of Engineering

Xavier Institute of Engineering

Vidyalankar Institute of Technology

Hello Aspirant,

You can check the cutoff using the official website through this link: https://cetcell.mahacet.org

Visit the CAP section, select the desired counselling round (Round 1, 2, or 3), and download the MHT CET cutoff PDF directly from the portal. This will help you check college and branch-specific closing ranks accurately.

All the best for your counselling.

• Best Branch Options :

  • Electronics & Telecommunication (E&TC)

  • Mechanical Engineering

  • Civil Engineering

• Top College Options in Pune :

  • Dr. D.Y. Patil Institute, Ambi

  • Zeal College of Engineering, Narhe

  • JSPM’s Imperial College, Wagholi

  • Sinhgad Institutes (Lonavala, Warje)

• Chances for CS/IT : Very low at this percentile

Hii,

A 39 percentile in MHT CET for the OBC category gives you moderate chances not in top-tier colleges like COEP Pune, or VJTI Mumbai,but definitely in some good private or semi-government colleges in Western Maharashtra.

Civil Engineering is often less competitive than branches like CSE or IT. Based on past cutoffs, a few colleges you should look ;

• Shree Ramchandra College of Engineering, Pune
• Adhalrao Patil Institute of Technology, Ahmednagar
• Zeal College of Engineering, Pune
• Vishwabharati Academy’s College of Engineering, Ahmednagar
• Sharadchandra Pawar College of Engineering, Pune

These colleges have cutoff percentiles around 35–50 for OBC in Civil, especially in later CAP rounds . Also, don’t hesitate to apply for branches like Mechanical, E&TC, or Production Engineering, which are sometimes easier to get into and still offer solid career options.

Make sure to complete the CAP registration, keep an eye on document verification dates, and don’t skip any round .

Wishing you all the best!

No, Bachelor of Physiotherapy admission in Maharashtra is not done through MHT-CET .

Instead, BPT admissions are conducted through the Centralized Admission Process (CAP) based on NEET-UG scores , as per the Maharashtra State CET Cell guidelines.

With a percentile of 91.05 in MHT CET, your chances of getting a tech branch at VIT Pune are fair but depend on a few key factors, including the specific branch you want, your category, and your home university region.

VIT Pune is one of the top private engineering colleges in Maharashtra, and branches like Computer Engineering, IT, and AI-ML are highly competitive. For these branches, the closing percentiles for the general category often fall around 96 to 98, especially under the open category from the home region. If you belong to a reserved category or are applying under a different region quota, your chances may improve slightly.

However, for slightly less competitive branches such as Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, Instrumentation, or Mechanical, your percentile could be within the closing range in later CAP rounds. VIT Pune also sees fluctuation in cutoffs each year based on demand and seat vacancies, so participating in all rounds of CAP counselling, including the spot round, will be important.

In short, admission to core branches like CS or IT is difficult at 91.05 percentile in open category, but you may have a chance in allied or emerging tech branches depending on the trends this year and your specific quota.

All the best!

You got 87.41 percentile in MHT-CET 2025 and you want to take admission in B.Tech Electrical Engineering at COEP Technological University, Pune. You are from Chhattisgarh but you also have a caste certificate from Maharashtra.

Now, to get admission in COEP through MHT-CET, you need to be a Maharashtra state candidate. Just having a caste certificate of Maharashtra is not enough. You must also show that you live in Maharashtra or have a domicile certificate of Maharashtra. Otherwise, you will be treated as an All India candidate, and for that COEP only accepts JEE Main score, not MHT-CET.

Electrical Engineering branch at COEP is very competitive. For this branch, the closing percentile is usually above 98 or 99 percentile even for OBC category. Your score is 87.41 percentile, which is much lower than the required cutoff. So, based on this score, you cannot get a seat in Electrical Engineering at COEP.

Even for other branches like Mechanical or Civil, the cutoff stays above 97 percentile. So with 87.41 percentile, it is not possible to get admission in COEP.

You should try for other good colleges in Maharashtra or nearby states where the cutoff is lower and admission is possible with your score.

Summary for 64.72 percentile in General Category:

• Computer Science or IT not possible in Pune colleges
• Mechanical, Civil, and Electrical branches possible in mid-tier Pune colleges such as JSCOE, MES, and SITS

Counseling advice: Focus on practical branch choices, include a range of options, and track each counseling round carefully.

With a 72 percentile, that is, around 120 to 130 marks in MHT CET for Mechanical, top-tier Mumbai colleges are out of reach, but certain Pune institutes like Dr. D.Y. Patil and Sinhgad remain within an attainable range.
